CASSANDRA · Bedside Table · Unda Design®

This piece is called CASSANDRA, a bedside table, and has Greek mythological inspirations.

Cassandra was the daughter of King Priam and Queen Hecuba. She was said to be very beautiful, intelligent, charming, desirable, elegant, and gentle, but she was considered to be insane.

She spent a night at Apollo’s temple at which time the temple snakes licked her ears clean so that she was able to hear the future. However, when she did not return his love, Apollo placed a curse on her so that no one would ever believe her predictions. She is a figure both of the epic tradition and of tragedy, where her combination of deep understanding and powerlessness exemplify the ironic condition of humankind.

Manufactured by a team of experienced, skilled and passionate craftsmen, this elegant snake pattern fabric covered piece is available in a lighter or darker finish.
